The powdered root of the Neo-Mandragora plant has a soporific effect when mixed with certain carrier compounds. The root extract dulls pain and numbs emotions, allowing the user to ignore all manner of discomfort.
Neo-Mandragora Root is a type of Exotic Biotic - an Exotic Substance related to Life Science. A physrep of a plant root, even something like ginger, or a vial of thin powder can be used to represent a few measures of this substance, but particularly large physreps can hold more.
When applied to a character, a measure of Neo-Mandragora Root makes roleplay effects that affect them less potent. Whenever they experience a roleplay effect, they experience it far less strongly than normal. This does not allow them to ignore the roleplay effect completely, but does substantially lessen how strongly it affects their roleplaying.
As with all Exotic Substances, a character with at least 1 rank in the relevant speciality (Life Science in this case) can spend 1 minute of appropriate roleplaying to apply 1 measure of Neo-Mandragora Root to a character. After this roleplaying, they should unpeel the sticker that represents this substance, stick it to target's character sheet and record the current date on it.
The boost provided by this substance wears off at time-in the following day.
